Wonderful discovery

Every morning for Breakfast I have a Granny Smith Apple, and PB2 chocolate. My husband has been telling me I should put some cinnamon on my apple. (He does this everyday on his) everyday I tell him I have to have Protein when I have fruit. So he put some cinnamon in my pb2 and OMG it was delicious. It is a staple now. And cinnamon is supposed to be good for blood pressure and other things, so it pains me to say but he was right. LOL

Try it and let me know what ya'll think. It is really good. I am 19 months out, lost 115 lbs. and loving life.

I love cinnamon. It's great in applesauce. And tea or coffee. I'm going to try it on/an apple, sounds good. What is PB2 chocolate? And where do you get it?

Have you ever sprinkled it over baked chicken? Yummy!

How long was it before you were able to eat apple slices comfortably? I am six weeks postop, and do not process them well. It makes me sad because before surgery I ate an apple every day!

What is PB2 chocolate? And where do you get it?

PB2 chocolate is God's gift to bypass patients who loved Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and/or Nutella, along with it's buddy PB2 for regular old Peanut Butter cravings. PB2 is powdered peanuts plus small amounts of salt & sugar; the chocolate version also has cocoa powder. You mix it with Water for delicious peanutty goodness. It's not as smooth as mass-produced peanut butters like Jif or Skippy or Peter Pan, but it really hits the spot.

I know others have found it in stores, but I get mine from Amazon:

I have bought it from whole foods and GNC. It really is great - though I really cannot taste the difference between the regular and chocolate and since the regular has 1 more gram of Protein [5g per 2tbs versus 4g] that's what I go with.

I started to eat peeled apples at 4 weeks. NUT says it will be awhile before I can digest the skin but that's ok. It one of my favs especially with PB2 ☺️
